I haven’t commented on this post, AB, because it’s so deeply moving to me. The fact that a church wouldn’t reach out in love to one who has made such a hard choice is deeply burdensome to me. It should not be so.

You’ve spoken a TON of truth here. A ton. I pray the seeds you’ve scattered here will bear fruit.

as Jesus loving people, we do need to reach out to those in need, I’m fortunate to belong to a church full of people who love unconditionally and are more than willing to reach out to lost, confused, hurting and lonely people. I feel very strongly for the right of an unborn child to live, but I also feel that I must be willing to help, to give of my time and recourses to those precious babies and girls who, though they felt scared, and alone, made the tremendous choice for life.

Thank you for this post. Kristen sent me over here; glad she did. Please thank your roomie for giving this new life “room to breathe.” My heart is greatly burdened for women who are abruptly living the results of poor decisions. And while I have never been faced with an unplanned pregnancy, I have had many occasion to live the consequences of my poor decisions. Over and over again.

My thoughts have been heavily weighted toward the abortion issue post election; I’ve been wandering around in my pain over the concept of how the “unborn” will likely have less rights with the new administration. That being said, I felt God profoundly calling me to get involved at some level. I called the local pregnancy center in our area and now how my “volunteer packet” to peruse and fill out. I don’t have much $ to offer the center, but I have some time.

Not a perfect solution, but it’s a start. A way to put some feet to my convictions. Anyway, thanks for this post. I am offering a prayer on behalf of this mother and child tonight.

peace~elaine
